As someone with ADHD, life is exactly this: negotiating with your brain to do the unrewarding thing by including a reward (i.e. buying a $40 pair of fluffy socks to make laundry end in a pleasant feeling). My "did a good job" dopamine response is hella muted and it makes anything that isn't an immediate need or spur-of-the-moment whim get prioritized very poorly. Having a "transactional view" may be less about personality and more about mental makeup.
